Q

What happens when a substance is condensing or freezing

-bonds are … between particles which releases energy so the … energy …
-the t… does not go down until the substance has fully … into a liquid or … into a solid

A

-bonds are forming between particles which releases energy so the internal energy decreases
-the temperature does not go down until the substance has fully condensed into a liquid or frozen into a solid
